What is that gun that is just a big tube on someones arm?

What is that gun that is just a big tube on someones arm?

A SM3k I think, with an air compressor attached to it.

I kinda feel bad about missing the group shot, but I must have been in the restroom at the time. Still those are some good pics, FH. If anyone got any of me (I was the guy with the green overshirt, camo pants, and white camo hat) could you please post them? I feel a little left out because no one on the site knows my face yet. (yes, I have a bit of an ego sometimes)

WHEN WERE THERE CUPCAKES.

Er....it was a battle cry. A supremely dumb one. Which made it awesome.

Also, Ryan, this is a question for you. I am interested in a +bow, but I rather enjoy building things. Is there a way I could pay you, say, 50-60 for the parts plus shipping? Or something along those lines? I just dont want it build for me is the thing, and I know thats what makes the price so high, is all the time you have to spend to build it.

Simply, no.

I will build you one and that's it.

I was actually considering not selling plusbows to anyone in Minnesota. It would be very mean on my part but I'll have to think about it.

And to add to that. I won't be able to make any for the fall war if I do at all. I'll be in Iowa for the entire month of July for work.

Carrtoon, I hereby forbid you from clicking on the above link unless you post pictures in the thread space below.

I also talked to my friend who I shot with my big blast on bare skin during the VIP, and he has no welts or anything, and that was a shot taken from 60 feet. So, on the subject of Big Blasts, no pump plugged, and the OP kicks in on mine after 6 pumps, so it only holds 6 pumps.

As a counterpoint to that, the BB that Carrtoon shot me was Ryan’s, which had no pump plug, and was also from 60 feet. I looked like I was smuggling a grape for a day, and had bruising the size of a quarter. Still amazing that I only got two small cuts from my teeth. He was using 17/32” brass and my darts, which have a tight fit. There’s a whole lot of power there, if your barrel uses it.

Which brings me to my second point: you people who weren’t using eye protection are freaking insane. And not in a good way. I can’t imagine taking the shot I did against standard sunglasses. Not that the lens would shatter, more that it would pop out of the frame and still cause damage. If BBs are allowed in the future, no way would I let them on the field unless everyone was wearing shield style eye protection.

I want pictures!

[Carrtoon]

Wow, great war. Definitely feeling it today. Sorry for the delay on pictures. It takes a while to edit/resize everything.

I'll start off by making everyone laugh. This was some Hispanic dad who took his son to play on the playground. He didn't really speak a sentence of fluent english and actually walked off with Carbon's snap at one point. Good stuff:





Here's your panning pic Hilt:





Ryan's +bow in action. I couldn't believe how much ass it kicked:







The VIP:

The awesomeness that is Carbon:



Sam:



And various others:










And the Big Blast that kept everyone at bay and scared shitless:



Finally, the picture of the day, Ryan and his exploded Coke can via +bow:

And the Big Blast that kept everyone at bay and scared shitless:

Oh man, I will miss being able to use that thing again. Only a daring few (including you Carrtoon) rushed me when wielding that thing. Don't anybody say it was noobish to use one like mine. It takes skill to be as accurate as I was with it. The reason I didn't think it was a big deal using a pump plugged big blast was that I thought that +bows would shoot darts insanely fast, far and accurately. They do shoot far and accurately, but not nearly as fast as a big blast, but +bows are still a better overall gun. That's a sweet pic too. Busta and I fighting back to back with big blasts, with our NFs in our pockets.

Speaking of shooting coke cans, did you guys remember when my big blast shot through both sides of an empty one?

That Hispanic guy was hilarious. I don't think anybody cared that he used my Maxshot in the pistol round, just because he didn't even know how to load id properly, as seen in the picture.

Great pics, Carrtoon!

That Hispanic guy was hilarious.

That's one way to put it. I don't know if anything can quite match the horror of walking off to the parking lot, and seeing dude's kid running past me, carrying the SNAP-1...which was cocked and ready to fire.

Apparently Bullet Dragon had had a fine moment when he later on scared the little kids away from grabbing our stuff.

We had a pistol round?

Speaking of which...anyone know who broke the handle off my SNAP pistol? I came back to it on the table to find the trigger messed up and the handle broken off. Which is sort of impressive, seeing as how it was held on which epoxy putty. Just curious.

Great pictures Carrtoon. The lens you were using looks like it was worth the money. That's an "L" series lens for ya.

I love this picture.

Oh, and sorry to venom for shooting him in the side of the head during the last tower round. And to anyone else I shot in the head and/or face during the day.

That was pretty awesome. i think we were on the same team and I was moving in for a flank while you watched my back. Either way, awesome picture.

Hispanic guy whot my in the neck point blank with the maxshot. That hurt like a motherfucker, but i didn't want to say anything to him.

Well, my welts are gone, meaning that it wasnt that bad. Sorry again about you getting hurt Carbon

Looking at my camera, not alot of great shots. I will load up as many as I deem good. I think I got a pretty badass shot of Sam with his +bow setup.

That was me, sorry. I just picked it up, cocked it, and when I fired it all blew up. I guess I just have bad luck with SNAP handles, considering the handle on mine broke at my house just before the war.

Ryan: No hard feelings. Getting shot in the head helped me realize how amazing +bows are. Besides I shot so many people with my big blast I kind of deserved it.

Pretty Effeminate picture, even if my facial expression is one of pain and agony. I still covet your camera.

Were I not on vacation in the windy city, I would be happy too. As soon as I get back to my nice comfy room, bed, modding stuff, and house, I willmost certainly busta out my camera and load some stuff on.

There you guys go, sorry it took so long. Things really kicked up this week in the form of finals (Yes Im still in school) and other personal issues, and no, my second appendix did not burst.

Anyway, revel in my shitty pictures. My camera sucks and I know it. Alot of the shots are or very poor quality. Although the vets group shot turned out quite well. Have fun with these pictures people

Ok, working out the kinks now. Hopefully it should be up and running soon.

Ok, try that now. I changed it to public.

Hey those pictures were pretty sweet. Thanks for uploading them.

Even though they were posted three weeks after the war....

Just giving you a hard time, oh wait sam already did that...

[Bullshit Dragon]

SWEET!!! Finally a few of me and my LS! Thx so much, Busta!


Pot-shot at someone (probably missed)

Nice pictures, I just wish I hadn't been making weird mouth expressions in the two I was in. I especially like how you took a picture of the vets and the noobs in a similar style.

Some more highlights
-Ranting about ice/uin13 at the end of the war
-NerfCrazy telling me that one of his crew members said "It's like high school all over again" (or something like that) when we were picking teams, NerfCrazy countering that by saying "You haven't been to High School!".
-Busta trying to burn the end of a bungee cord or something.
-Yelling "For Narnia!" in a tribute to dark shrimp.
-NerfCrazy repeatedly forgetting the name of Messiah's friend, Frank.
-Wanting to use a crossbow, searching around to find out whose it was, having them (Sam) deter me from using (no hard feelings, I wouldn't want some kid using my crossbow either, if I had one). Having it made up for by letting me use his +bow later.
-Vets vs Noobs was just, funny.
-People not even asking for my real name, just calling me Venom, which is how it should be.

It was parachute cord from which I was fashioning ghetto strap holders. I have since then came up with a beter system involving metal loops. Alot more permanent.

Thanks for the feedback on my pictures. I hope to be able to commandeer a decent camera and camcorder by the next war, and may need to recruit a family member or friend to come and film.
